“Noodles" Aaronson (Robert De Niro) hides in an opium den remembering 1921. Young Noodles (Scott Tiler) lived in a poor Jewish neighborhood in Brooklyn with "Patsy" Goldberg (Brian Bloom), "Cockeye" Stein (Adrian Curran), and Dominic (Noah Mozezi. They formed a gang with Max Bercovitz (Rusty Jacobs) and stashed their ill-gotten funds in a bus locker. Bugsy (James Russo) shot Dominic so Noodles killed Bugsy and was sent to prison. Noodles is released in 1933 to rejoin Max (James Woods), Patsy (James Hayden), and Cockeye (William Forsythe) who are now bootleggers. Joe (Burt Young) and Frankie (Joe Pesci) Minaldi want them to steal some diamonds. After the violent heist Joe is gunned down by Max on Frankie’s orders. Max then draws the gang deeper into the Minaldi’s Mafia rackets and politics and proposes a suicidal job. Noodles betrays the plan to the cops to save their lives but Max, Patsy, and Cockeye are all killed. At the bus locker Noodles discovers the money has been replaced with newspaper. Next it is 1968 and Noodles is back in New York at the bus locker once again. He finds the suitcase now filled with money, payment for one last job.
